Put a clean copy of it in a directory someplace on the server say Backup
folder.
Create a robocopy script that copies the file back in to place. You can then
schedule it to go off during off hours or at system reboot.
For example

robocopy c:\backup\normal.dot "C:\program files\Microsoft Office etc etc" /e
